The NHP Allstars must have gotten a good night's sleep and woke up ready to play. Against the Commack Lighting our boys forged a 2-2 tie. Goals scored by John Leva on a beautiful feed by Dan Lorandini and Nick Perrone also assisted by Dan. In game 2, the West Islip Lions were no match for the Allstars. Kevin Towey got both goals in a 2-0 win. Outstanding goal tending by Joe Carbone. Game 3 was a classic against the eventual second place Wantagh Freedom. In a back and forth game the Allstars secured a 3-3 tie. Goals in this game by Steven Rieckert, Dan Lorandini and Nick Perrone. Super goal tending by Troy Driscoll. Alex Montoni, John Leva and Mark Roantree kept peppering the Wantagh goaltender from their striker positions. Kevin Towey and Joe Carbone tracked down every loose ball and cleared our defensive zone.

Under tournament rules, the only way the Allstars could take first was to win the next two games by shutout, which is exactly what they did. A 1-0 victory was secured on a blast off the foot of Nick Perrone over the West Islip Wolverines. In the last game of the day the Allstars outlasted the mighty Hauppauge Titans by a score of 1-0. Goal was provided by a beautiful touch by Troy Driscoll and Dan Lorandini. Joe Carbone was amazing in goal making saves and clearing loose balls to start offensive drives.

Special thanks to all the parents for making the trip and actually finding the high school with those great directions provided by the coach. The boys played a very well disciplined game, stayed in their assigned positions and played great defense. Thank you for a wonderful Sunday, coach Tony Perrone.
